Key Features
- 94-pin dual-row configuration at 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch enabling extremely high signal density in a right-angle SMT connector
- Right-angle (L) termination style supporting lateral board exit to minimize stack height in multi-PCB chassis assemblies
- Tiger Eye contact system proven for high-reliability operation across vibration, shock, and thermal cycling from -55°C to +125°C
- Tape-and-reel (TR) packaging ensuring automated pick-and-place compatibility for streamlined SMT production
Applications
The TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR serves high-density signal interconnect needs in defense electronics, industrial computing, and telecommunications equipment requiring 94 pins through a single right-angle SMT connector at 0.050 inch pitch. Its compact dual-row footprint is ideal for FPGA mezzanine cards, high-speed backplanes, and multi-channel signal processing boards where both pin density and lateral connector access are critical design requirements. The right-angle orientation enables front-panel access to the 94-pin interface without disturbing surrounding board components.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR achieve 94 pins while maintaining a compact PCB footprint?
The TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR achieves 94 total pins by using a dual-row arrangement at a fine 0.050 inch (1.27 mm) pitch, which is half the spacing of standard 2.54 mm pitch connectors. This configuration fits 47 contacts per row within a connector body spanning approximately 60 mm in length, delivering 94 signals in roughly the same board length as a 30-pin connector at standard 2.54 mm pitch.
What temperature range does the TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR support, and is it suitable for harsh environments?
The TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR's Tiger Eye contact system is rated for operation across a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C, covering both extreme cold environments such as outdoor industrial installations and elevated temperature environments such as engine control modules and avionics bays. This wide thermal range, combined with vibration and shock resistance, qualifies the connector for harsh aerospace and defense applications where standard commercial connectors would fail.
What is the advantage of the 0.050 inch pitch of TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR compared to a 0.100 inch pitch alternative for a 94-pin design?
Using 0.050 inch pitch instead of 0.100 inch pitch reduces the length of a 94-pin single-row connector from approximately 240 mm to 120 mm, effectively halving the board space consumed by the connector. For a dual-row design, the 0.050 inch pitch keeps the 94-pin body under 65 mm in length, which is critical in compact PCB layouts where a 240 mm connector span would conflict with other components or violate board size constraints.
How does tape-and-reel packaging of the TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR benefit high-volume manufacturing?
The tape-and-reel (TR) packaging of the TFM-147-32-L-D-A-P-TR enables automated SMT pick-and-place machines to feed, orient, and place the 94-pin connector without manual intervention, reducing placement cycle time to under 2 seconds per component and achieving consistent positioning accuracy within 0.1 mm. This is essential for high-volume production runs of hundreds or thousands of PCBs, where manual connector placement would introduce variability and increase assembly cost per unit.
